Here I was enjoying the moment, and you just had to bring up that painful memory, didn't you?  Where's the de-merit button when you need it?  

kidding, of course

Aaaan, Mahomes is intercepted.  That's all she wrote, no time-outs, less than two minutes left, and the Bucs just need to kneel.  No hail-mary needed.

Lol, I've made stupider moves that paid off.   


I blame my ethnicity.  Palestinians aren't known for drinking much, but when we do we prefer weak beer and stinky Scotch.


That's the kind of stupid shit that they need to avoid.  I wish I could read lips, I'm wondering what the fuck Matthew had to say to Brady after that score.  You know Andy Reed is reaming him a new asshole right about now.

Man, this is starting look like a rout in the making.  Mahomes is 2/9 for 9 yards so far.  KC may not score the 2.5 TDs I need from them to win my bet. 


Sweet.

Okay, it's official:  You're invited to all my Post-Covid super bowl parties.  For life.  Unless, you're one of those guys that brings micro-brews to look cool, then proceeds to only drink my coors light.  Then you're uninvited.

BTW, it's always a multi-ethnic super bowl buffet around here; Polish sausages, guacamole, humus, falafel, mom's home-made pita bread, and sushi.  No lack of options for the picky.

Lol, I doubt the odds would be worth the wager.  

I think it's a common misconception that mobile quarterbacks are harder to sack, but statistically speaking that hasn't always been true.  It really has more to do with the OLine than the QB's mobility.  It's hard to compare Mahomes' career with that of Brady's just because of the difference in sample size, so in the graphic below I included  a couple of the more successful "mobile" QBs in the league today:  One with a lot of experience; Russell Wilson, and another young QB who is arguably the most mobile in the league today; Deshaun Watson.



Obviously Brady has benefited by playing with OLines that are among the best in the league during his entire career, and so far Patrick Mahomes has as well.  As seen above Mahomes' mobility hasn't had a very significant effect on the sack stats.  The small sample size can certainly compensate for the difference between his and Brady's career numbers.  Mahomes hasn't had to struggle with a porous line the way Brady has had to during some of his seasons.

Mobile QBs are a lot of fun to watch, they're great for the highlight reals, they can make lemon-aid out of lemons the way Wilson has done for years.  But the statistics don't corroborate the notion that they are less-likely to get sacked.

Of course I haven't mentioned the "Pocket Acuity" of Brady.  It's almost like the guy has eyes on the back of his helmet.  The reality is that there is a statistically consistent amount of time that a pocket passer has.  There are specific places to which a pocket passer can slide to buy himself a little more time.  It all comes down to coaching and knowing your team-mates.  No one has mastered the art as well as Tom Brady.

I can't stand it, I had to bet on City while holding my nose.  To me City is like the Dallas Cowboys of the EPL; the team I love to hate.

I placed a betbuilder wager on the game, City to win, both teams score, over 7.5 corners.  So far so good, LFC doesn't look like they're going to be able stop City from scoring again, and I only need three more corners for my bet to win.

ETA: Lost it by one corner.  When will I learn?

And, just for fun:



Go Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Happy Super Bowl Sunday every one!

This bound to be a good game, the spreads are so tight, and money lines are low.  I prefer a close back and fourth game, it keeps things interesting.  But: if it's close, and Tom Brady's team is the under dog...  There's only one way to go.

Anyway, I picked the Bucks +6.5, and added a few props to boost the odds:



Good luck with your bets today, have fun, and enjoy those Costco hotdogs.  But this time, please don't eat all the guacamole before I'm able get some.

If you're lending to a friend that you trust, I'd suggest a low, "friendly" interest rate.  Most lenders request an interest rate that will provide returns while also compensating for the occasional default.  If you're confident that you'll get the funds back, I'd put generosity above profits in this situation.


Yeah, I need to update that thread.  It's been a while and I know some of the rates are outdated.  And, at least one of those lenders (he'hem) is no longer offering loans.

Did he?  I'm sorry if I missed that, all I see is this:


He said he sees the transactions in the trezor.io/wallet, but not the beta wallet.  If he's using the beta wallet it's not going to sync because it's been disabled.  I don't know that he's used the beta wallet to try to generate a new receiving address to compare with the trezor.io/wallet, I'm not sure he's gotten that far.

You hire anyone to do what exactly?  You're post is borderline illiterate, and contains zero information about what's expected and what pay rates you offer.  If you want some responses I suggest you provide some more details.

The best gambling movie hasn't been made yet, but it's only matter of time: Citadel vs. WallStreetBets, lol.  Also, Solo: A StarWars Story, (how do you think he came by the Millennium Falcon?) just kidding, that movie sucked.

Seriously though:

My dad was a fan of James Caan, he and I watched The Gambler when I was a kid but I don't think I've seen it since then.  The other one I recall watching with my dad was California Split.  I'll have to check those two out again.

I've tried to watch Uncut Gems twice already, and I keep getting distracted.  I often put on movies while I'm cooking dinner or cleaning up after, but that movie isn't one that works as a background flick.  I'll give it another shot one of these days.

Happy Birthday!  21 again?

Lol, clearly!  

Almost all newbies clearly make their first posts in Meta, clearly something you know a bit about.  And clearly kind of you to point this clearly new member to the rules, I'm sure all clearly see that is is not subterfuge.  Clearly.



No body move,
no body get's hurt,

that's my number
Oyo!

I think this is your issue, and as others have suspected it's most likely a synchronization issue.  Trezor has disabled it's beta wallet and is recommending users use it's Trezor Suite software.  Here's what I get when I go Trezor's beta wallet link:



I prefer to use Electrum for bitcoin transactions, but I've used the Trezor Suite for altcoins, and it's alright.

I think you mean you would use the offline wallet to sign an unsigned transaction.

The short answer is no.  There have been updates in the past that would prevent an older version from signing an unsigned transaction created by newer version, but if you're talking about a recent release of Tails, you should be fine.  I'm afraid I don't know the exact version numbers that would pose an issue, but for other security issues I would make sure the version of Tails you're using has version 3.0.4 or later.

The Rams really screwed themselves.  Twice.  Once when the signed Goff to a "franchise QB" contract, and again when they changed their minds.  Not that I'm complaining, although I would have been happy to see Goff stay in the NFC west, if you catch my drift.

I agree that the Lions got the better end of the bargain, and the Rams still have a cap hit for this year, along with little room to do much.  Stafford might have a stronger arm, but if Sean McVay thinks that's going to solve the Rams' problems, he's in for rude awakening.

I also don't get the digs on Goff.  I think he's a fine quarterback, with a lot of talent.  He's had issues with turnovers, but there's plenty of blame to go around for a significant portion of them, not excluding the coaching staff.  This past year he had the best completion percentage of his career, he started 15 games, played in all 16, while hurt for a few of them, including the playoffs.


I read that somewhere recently, also.  They always seem to come up with some tricks, but usually it had to do with Drew Brees restructuring his contract.


Most of the Bucks' players haven't been to a superbowl, so there's a chance that the big-stage jitters will give the Chiefs the advantage.  I think the Bucks covering the spread is a safe bet, but it's pretty darn close.  I have a feeling the Bucks are going to win, they have a slight edge on Defense, and as the saying goes "Defense wins championships."

Gladly: The evidence in the link points to a human who almost made a mistake once upon a time.  You're continued effort to bludgeon him with it is a mistake that you keep making time after time.  The community has chosen their response to both.  We did so over two years ago...

Remember when you had a legendary account that was capable of registering in signature campaigns?  You blew that wad, and now you just jealous.

Well, I'm 0 for 2 on the day, and blew my wad.  Actually I have 0.5mBTC left to invest in the big game.  Doesn't look like sportsbet.io is buying me a new truck this year, maybe next year.

Not the game I expected or wanted to see, but it'll be a good game none the less.  I predict the Chiefs will win, so now you all know to bet on the Bucs.

Lol, good job!  That crusty old fucker, he lost me 1mBTC!  


FIFY! 

I imagine any coach in the league would love to have him.  I doubt that Green Bay will let him go after the season he just had.  Even if they sign him for a year or franchise him, if that's an option.
